Danniella Westbrook nearly crashes her car after spotting ‘dead body’ on the side of the road
DANNIELLA Westbrook said she nearly crashed her car after seeing what looked like a body by the side of the road.
The former EastEnders star was stunned to see what appeared to be a man in a hoodie lying on the ground as she drove past.
However, the 48-year-old actress saw the funny side of the twisted prank asking: “Who even does this?
“I nearly crashed my car thought it was a person who was hurt.”
She added: “Gotta laugh or you would just be left wondering what sort of people walk amongst us everyday.”
Speaking to fans on Instagram she added: “They’ve put a hoodie with a pillow, looks like someone’s sat there. Funny as f***.”

Danniella also took another swipe at EastEnders, who recently announced they were bringing back her character Sam Mitchell but played by Kim Medcalf.
Kim played the role between 2002-2005, but Danniella had returned in 2016 as the brassy troublemaker.
Danniella added: I’m looking to the future. EastEnders was great, I grew up in front of the nation. But it’s in the past. I am so RIP Sam Mitchell!”
